THREE HORSESHOES AHB No.2

There are no less than 4 AHB's in the village of Turves, all within the space of about 1 mile, controlled by Three Horseshoes signalbox. Photography at none of them is easy but this one is the best, which doesn't say much for the rest. From this location, adavance warning of oncoming trains is excellent as both AHB Nos. 1 & 3 are easily visible, one to each side.
